Urban Zone Living

The urban zone is continuously evolving, and many high rise buildings and apartments are being constructed to cater the growing number of population. With the limited spaces in an urban home or apartment people have to be wise in doing interior design. Space saving techniques are much required most especially for those who are just renting rooms, one needs to be wise when it comes to saving space and making us o every single square meter.

Say goodbye to bulky television sets. They are now a thing the past, and so are bulky stands and cabinets. Urban living and design now promotes space saving lcd tv screens on plasma mounts either attached to the walls or ceilings. Corner spaces are also used for books shelves, or even cabinets with mirror cover to save space. The space under the bed is also being utilized as cabinets for clothes, shoes or even as bookshelves. This only goes to show how flexible people can be, no matter how small their place is.

Reaching One's Dreams

I have long given up on ever thinking of going back to school again for so many reasons. First, I hate having to go to school, traveling, and having to follow a certain schedule. Before I thought of pursuing my continuing post-grad studies, but the University I applied for a scholarship only offers the course in one of their campuses which is really far from my location.

I’ve heard that one of my friends was able to complete his course through distant learning. I want to try it out too, and perhaps I could get an online degree for less, minus all the expenses of both travel and accommodation. I’ve heard that one of the best online universities also provide scholarships, for deserving individuals.

Now everyone gets the chance to reach their dreams to finish academics. From health related to business, teaching, information technology, etc. One can earn a degree and get a bigger chance to get employed in the future.

Melisa of PBB Double UP

Melisa, Melai or Isay of PBB Double Up is one person that makes me want to watch the show. I think without her, the house will be really dull. Although a lot of people say that she’s not pretty, I say — Isay is definitely beautiful both physically and in character.
People often criticize her coz of her teeth. Isay two front teeth has a space in between them and she also like making funny faces making her look weird. I guess she’s just trying to be funny and it’s undeniably working, because television viewers love her to bits. I bet if Isay will take good care of her physical looks and with the help of other enhancements especially if someone who is an expert in implant dentist Plano or other dental concerns, she can get better looking teeth. I’m sure she’d look so much better than she already does. She has a nice light brown skin too, and if her nose gets a little enhanced, I’m sure nobody would call her ugly again.

The Zen Garden

Last night, I went to the mall to buy a couple of flashlights and extra batteries. I would be needing them just in case there will be more brownouts. I hate having to use candles or whatever, coz it’s not safe and it usually causes fire.
On my way home, I passed by the mall’s zen garden instead of the other way going to the terminal coz the takoyaki stand was transferred on that side. After buying my fave food, I sad by the bench in the garden to eat. There are different lights in the man made falls, I hate bright lights so I went to the other side where the pond was.
I just sat there and watched the Koi fishes swimming along with the tiny turtles as the pond pumps and the aerator creates bubbles. It was a beautiful sight, rather relaxing… I guess Zen gardens really help take stress away. I felt much better and I hardly noticed that I was there for about 30 minutes. I will definitely go there again…

Life's Struggles

As I was reading through some blogs, I found one written by a guy names Bill. He writes about his kids and his daily life as a work at home dad. He has four kids and his wife just passed away a couple of months after giving birth to their youngest son. It’s really sad, but he is trying to cope with life for his kids.

Aside from the whole situation that he is in now, he is  also struggling to fight stress and overeating. Ever since he started working at home and became a housedad, he gained a lot of weight and got addicted to cooking. He spends almost all his time thinking about cooking and food.

Bill has chosen to stay at home to look after his young kids whose ages ranges from 2 months old to 6 years old. His mom is helping him out but still taking care of 4 kids and not being used to it could be really stressful. He is trying all kinds of appetite suppressant to keep him from eating too much. But I think all he need is to  away from the kitchen. What do you think?

Awesome Freebies

I like the idea of getting freebies for every purchase I make at the nearby mall. They have this promo, for every three hundred bucks amount of purchase, you get a chance to spin and get items for free. I got a free can opener and with the other purchase I got a free umbrella. I don’t really mind the name written on it, since that’s part of the deal.

I remember before, when I was still selling concert tickets. For every ticket you buy, you get either a shirt, sling bags, or caps. I was so damn lucky coz I purchase a lot of tickets prior to the event, then sell them to friends. They’re the type who not into getting get promotional items and just want to watch the concert. At least I got some freebies that I could use. I’ve always been fond of collectible freebies, especially if I like the events, like the silver keychain I got from MTV.

Switchfoot Dare You To Move

It’s been awhile since I last listened to this song, and right now, I can’t get enough of it again. Damn…. here’s switchfoot in my music system again. I will download the song and load it on my play list, so I can listen to it wherever I go.

I love Dare You to move….
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move… I dare you to move
Like today never happened… Today never happened before

Asaka Punta? Punta Cana mo!

Asaka punta? I wonder why people love to ask other people such questions. Don’t they know that when someone doesn’t want to tell, he won’t say where he’s going, unless otherwise he’d like other people to know then he would say, I’m going to this place, or I’ll be around a certain area. But if not, then I guess it’s understood that someone just want to be alone, even just for a time.

But when we are going to a certain place and we’re too excited and happy about it, we can’t help but tell people where we’re going, even if they’re not interested to know or they are not really asking.

How about you, if you are going to a place next as peaceful to paradise, or maybe if you’re invited for some punta cana vacations, will you tell people about it? Who are you going to take with you?

The Meeting Place

Outer Banks vacations has played a major role to those who have met and fell in love while trying to stay away from the whole world. There are those who have so much worries in their lives and decided to just have some time alone by the beach, there are those who have gone there in purpose of having fun or spending time with family and friends, and some are those who stayed in those vacation places all their lives watching visitors come and go.

The islands, the beaches, and anywhere where the ambiance relaxes the mind and the spirit, is a perfect meeting place for lovers. A place that makes every second of the day a perfect time to find themselves or find someone to love. Does it have something to do with the sand, the sun, the shore or the ocean breeze? Or does it have something to do with the endless white snow by the sea during cold seasons….?

The Side Characters in Music

I was watching this music video and there was this lady in red who was always at the background. She wasn’t really the main character in the music video, neither was she one of the band members playing. She was just right there, like a wallflower in every scene. It made me wonder what the… I mean was it some sort of distraction or what? She even looked like that woman in the weight loss pills commercial on tv. The spotlight wasn’t on her, but the dress was attention magnet if you’re an observant.

Sometimes when we watch videos we don’t really notice all the other things except for the main characters, artists, etc. We hardly remember the background used, or if the same crowd are being shown in every scene. But it’s quite cool when you realize that in fact mv directors are now inserting some attention seeking characters in every music video scene aside from the major players, to keep people from watching it.
